When Jesus prayed for someone or for a need to be met the prayer was short and direct. When Jesus taught the decuples how to pray he showed them to pray directly for their needs. These prayers are to help you to meet your needs and to help you to develop your relationship with God. You may make them more personal if you like.
God will hear your prayer and answer it in a way that is best for you.
